The Cabinet of Italy (also called the Italian Cabinet or the Council of Ministers, Italian: Consiglio dei Ministri) is a principal organ of the Government of Italy. It comprises the President of the Council (i.e. the prime minister), the ministers, and the undersecretary to the President of the Council.
The President of the Republic is not a member of the government, and therefore cannot become a member of the Council of Ministers.

Whence turbulent Italy should draw
Delight in Art whose end is peace,
In logic and in natural law
By sucking at the dugs of Greece.”
